Unbounded Love Birthday Slimline for Tic Tac Toe Challenge #247

Welcome to Tic Tac Toe Thursday! I love the Tic Tac Toe Challenge! I have a fun card for you today using my favorite new In Color, Pretty in Pink.
Stampin' Up! Unbounded Love Slimline birthday card idea with Pretty In Pink-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
This week’s challenge board was created by my friend, Rosanne. It has some fun elements to pick from.

I chose to go across the top with Embossing, Slimline, Twine.
Stampin' Up! Unbounded Love Slimline birthday card idea with Pretty In Pink-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
This mini slimline card is really quick & easy to create and would be a great way to use your leftover scraps. I used Stampin’ Up!’s  2024-2026 In Color 6×6 Designer Series Paper Pack to cut 1/2 inch strips. I also cut some Basic White strips and embossed them with the Basics Crosshatch Embossing Folder to add some texture.

Here are the details:

Card Supplies/Measurements:

Stamp Set/Bundle: Unbounded Love
Card base (Basic Beige): 6 x 7 scored at 3 1/2 (for 3 1/2 x 6 card)
Cardstock Layer (Pretty in Pink): 2 @ 5 3/4 x 3 1/4 (1 for inside card)
Basic White Layer: 2 @ 5 5/8 x 3 1/8 (to adhere strips)
DSP Strips (2024-2026 In Color 6×6 ): ~16 @ 1/2 x 6
Basic White: scraps to die cut label for sentiment from Unbounded Love Dies, Cut 1/2 in. strips and emboss with Basics Crosshatch Embossing Folder
Basic Beige: 2 x 2 1/2 to die cut label from Unbounded Love Dies
Pretty in Pink: scraps to die cut flowers from Country Birdhouse Dies
Ribbon: ~ 8 in
Embellishments: Linen Thread, 2024-2026 In Color Glimmer Gems

Directions:

  1. Fold & burnish card base.
  2. Arrange various DSP and embossed white strips to determine pattern and placement on the Basic White layer. (*To be honest I just chose as I glued.)
    Adhere in place. Trim excess. *You can use the scraps after trimming to fill the smaller areas.

  3. Adhere the strip layer to the Pretty in Pink layer. Adhere to card base.
  4. Cut white and beige labels from Unbounded Love Dies.
  5. Wrap Ribbon around beige label and tie with Linen Thread. Trim ends of ribbon. Adhere to card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  6. Stamp sentiment on white die and adhere to beige & ribbon layer.
  7. Embellish with flower dies and Shimmer Gems.
  8. For inside of card repeat adding strips, trimming ends, and adhering to cardstock layer. Stamp Sentiment and add flower and gem embellishment.
  9. This card will fit in a standard white business envelope (3 5/8 x 6 1/2). Use any leftover strips to decorate the envelope to coordinate.

I hope you’ll head over to the Tic Tac Toe Challenge to see what the other Design Team Members created. Then Pick 3 and play along!

Have a wonderful day! Thanks for stopping by.

Pretty Perennials Slimline Birthday Card

This has been a busy week!  I can not believe it’s Friday already! I loved reading all your suggestions for monthly tutorials and I will certainly be using these ideas to create. There are so many great choices in the new Mini Catalog that there simply isn’t enough months to showcase them all!!!  This month I will be featuring the oh so pretty Pretty Perennials Bundle. It’s one of My Favorite Things from the new Mini Catalog.

This set had me at “happy”!  I love the font and all the different sentiments that work with it! For my card today I made a slimline card and custom envelope to coordinate.
Stampin' Up! Pretty Perennials slimline birthday card idea featuring Paper Blooms custom envelope - Jeanie Stark StampinUp
I am totally on board with the new slimline craze!  I’ve made a few others which I shared previously which were sized to fit a business size #10 envelope. This one I made a little different to fit my sentiment and the look I wanted to create so I made my own custom envelope to match.

I had so much fun creating this envelope using the Paper Blooms Designer Series Paper (A FREE gift during Sale-A-Bration)! You can easily add a stick on Avery Label to the front of the envelope to address it to send through the mail.

The additional flower on the back is not necessary to close the envelope it but adds a nice touch don’t you think? I wanted it to coordinate with the die cut flowers on the front of the card.  Here’s a close up.

I created the inside of this card to be as pretty as the front!

The inside sentiment comes from the Happiest of Birthdays stamp set. I added the Paper Blooms Designer Series Paper on the inside so the sentiment wouldn’t look lost.

The tutorial for this card and custom slimline envelope is part of my exclusive monthly tutorials for February featuring the Pretty Perennials Bundle.  You’ll get 3 card tutorials, the custom envelope tutorial, and a fun 3D project tutorial I will be showcasing later. Check out my Just Stampin’ Rewards below to see how to get your hands on all these ideas!!

I’m looking forward to the Super Bowl this weekend, how about you? What team are you rooting for?

Have a great day! Stay safe! Stay well!
